Pelly Pastoral Charge was formed as a new United Church charge in 1925, part of Kamsack Presbytery. It initially included Pelly, Norquay, Maloneck, Arran, Melmore and Sunny Isles. As of 1940, the charge consisted of Pelly, Hyas, Arran, Norquay and Stenen, but this changed by 1946, with Belleau Book, Mellmore, Millroad, and Moss Side added, and Stenen-Hyas moved to Preeceville. By 1951, it had been renamed Pelly-Malonek Pastoral Charge, with points at Pelly, Malonek, Hyas, Norquay, and Watson Creek. Between the late-1950s and early 1960s, Pelly Pastoral Charge added Grantsville (from ca.1960), alongside Malonek, Norquay and Pelly. Swan Plain also joined the charge, around 1965, where it remained until the church closed, in 1989. As of 1990, the charge contained only Pelly, Maloneck and Norquay. The church at Maloneck officially closed December 31, 2001.

On May 1, 2003, the charge amalgamated with Canora-Invermay Pastoral Charge to create the new Canora-Norquay-Pelly Pastoral Charge. The preaching point at Invermay closed, on June 30, 2003.

On January 1, 2012, Canora-Norquay-Pelly dissolved and the three points were reorganized into separate charges, including Pelly Pastoral Charge.

Local church congregations in the United Church are organized into pastoral charges, each run by a governing body, such as a Council or Board. Charges can often include more than one local church or preaching place congregation under the leadership of a minister.
